anyone have a way to host a short clip for me??????:D The knarly has impressed me so far!!!! the Traction was excellentand never lost traction ,it had alot better cornering ability to corner than a stock 400ex tire has thanks to a 18 inch tire......:) I havent had a chance to compare them up to the klaws yet,those will be tested on the Predator here in the next few weeks.We tested them on sand,clay,MX track and desert terrain....I HIGLY reccomend these tires to anyone who likes the stockers,I cant wait to see how well it improves the traction for the Predator..This tire is a hit in my book!!!!!

I have a short clip of my Honda426ex racing for fun against an R with Kenda Klaws and a 440ex with turf tamers.The roost was unmatched.......:D IF someone could help me out and host the vid(its not good quality but you can get an idea,using new Camera at time:o ) it would be much appreciated.....;)

I would say cornering might be just a bit nicer on the Klaws is what Im gonna guess,although like I mentioned before, I havent had a chance to try them out yet,but will be here is a few more weeks..on a muddy MX track they worked VERY well!!! they hooked up great . I liked them well enough that I may go ahead and and buy a second set so we both have our own set ........

Jeff - what is the actual tire height on those? date available? are they working on any radials?

I like the small lugs they put on the side - should give them just a little bit more sidewall bite for climbing out of bad ruts.

I am running the 20" knarlys for xc and have been impressed, but when it is really rutted out they could use just a bit more height or sidewall bite to pull out of the ruts. Mine are 19.5" @ 6psi. Also, they wear much better compared to some of the other brands I have tried.

Actual height is 21" and should be available late summer/early fall.
